"Anna, running a business like what you've planned requires strategy, connections, and a certain level of expertise. Taking a step to further equip you with these tools isn't a bad idea."
Anna raised both her eyebrows at him, curious. "Okay?"
He kept silent until he was sure she really wanted to hear what he was about to say. "I know you've been out of your field for a while, but fresh knowledge would really help your ideas." He continued, wiping his mouth with a napkin. "Harvard has a six- month advanced training course, specifically designed for entrepreneurs who want to refine their skills. I think you should join that program, and come back stronger with better ideas about your business."
Anna looked skeptical, but Truce urged. "Think about it. You'd be surrounded by brilliant minds, you'll learn from the best, and build your network from there. I know it's best for you."
Her lips parted in surprise. "Harvard... That's… enormous."
